python-resize-image unicode decode error - Pedroski55 - Apr-21-2020
I am trying this from pypi.org here:
from PIL import Image
from resizeimage import resizeimage
fd_img = open('/home/pedro/backgrounds/pearlReflection.jpg', 'r')
img = Image.open(fd_img)
img = resizeimage.resize_contain(img, [827, 1169])
img.save('test-image-contain.jpeg', img.format)
fd_img.close()I have tried other bits of their code and it worked.I am getting the error below and I don't know why, as I am trying to follow the pypi.org instructions exactly:
Any idea what the problem is??

Well, I got past that problem, after lunch, with this:
Quote:>>> fd_img = open('/home/pedro/backgrounds/pearlReflection.jpeg', 'rb')
But now I'm stuck on save:
Quote:>>> img.save(name, img.format)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/pedro/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PIL/JpegImagePlugin.py", line 612, in _save
rawmode = RAWMODE[im.mode]
KeyError: 'RGBA'
During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<pyshell#26>", line 1, in <module>
img.save(name, img.format)
File "/home/pedro/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PIL/Image.py", line 2134, in save
save_handler(self, fp, filename)
File "/home/pedro/.local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/PIL/JpegImagePlugin.py", line 614, in _save
raise OSError("cannot write mode %s as JPEG" % im.mode)
OSError: cannot write mode RGBA as JPEG

How to get around this error??
RE: python-resize-image unicode decode error - snippsat - Apr-21-2020
Look at cannot write mode RGBA as JPEG (4.2.0) #2609
RE: python-resize-image unicode decode error - Pedroski55 - Apr-21-2020
Thanks, that fixed it:
Quote:img = img.convert("RGB")
After that it saved fine!
